Carlist Party

The Carlist Party (PC) is a socialist/monarchist political party in Spain that was founded in 1970. The party had a platform that was considered to be a renovated form of Carlism, advocating self-management socialism, the conversion of the Carlist movement into a federal and democratic party of the masses, of class, and of a socialist monarchy ruled by a pact between the monarch and the people. Carlos Hugo, Duke of Parma was the party's leader from 1975, and the party was legalized on the fall of Francisco Franco's regime. The party represented the left wing of the Carlist movement, as the right wing still advocated monarchism.
